Yes, you connect the player to a PC via a USB port. Then you can use the Zen software's version of Explorer that allows you to look at and manipulate the files. The problem seems to be that you can't do all the things you want.

You can delete files or folders, you can rename files or folders, with no problem. What you can't do (at least, as far as I've discovered), is transfer files from one folder to another. This seems an annoying and unnecessary restriction. If you end up with files in the 'wrong' folder, all you can do is delete them and then reload them into the 'correct' one (which obviously takes a lot more time). I just can't understand why they make this restriction on movement of files.

As I said, it's particularly annoying if you load an album by various artists. The only way to get them all into the same file would be to rename the artists to be all the same (e.g. make the artist name 'Various' or something), to 'fool' the software into thinking the album is all by the same artist, and get it to put them into the same folder. Then you would have to go through the tedious process of renaming each artist manually, back to the actual artist names (assuming you can be bothered).

If anyone knows how to transfer files from one folder to another, I'd be grateful. Maybe there's a setting that needs changing or something - the user documentation that comes with it is fairly basic btw, and is really only a 'getting started' guide. It doesn't cover all the various menu options, etc., and I've had to find out by trial and error what many of them do. (I was hoping there would be a proper user reference guide on the CD, but no - all there is is a soft copy of the tiny printed guide).
